my family is filled with glee.

Working on the how
Been so very long
Now that...

On The Trail, For A Little WhileHe figured the dreaming had ended for another day
Looking out over where he was camped.

I miss my dad,
my hero and friend.
I miss...

Going Home - AbracadabraMy heart strokes the strings of memories, utterly sublime.
Alpine trees echo enticing chants to welcome me there.

HEAVEN'S SCENT
My candle it burned at both ends,
It disappeared by mornings light,
Where its warmth and fragrance went,
That is where I'll soon be sent.

A Step Back In TimeA step back in time
when verandas had rocking chairs
purposely placed in the sunlight;
waiting for Grandma to sit,
and rock until darkness descended.

Making My WayOver the shoulder of the old mountain,
Along the trace and through the crowning wood,
I strolled along in shadow and sunshine
Until in the ancient orchard I stood.
Before me were aging pear trees and plum
And over there...

in our fright’s strand on stormwatch to the south,
heed the mighty whirlwind, its scything trail -

THIS IS BEINGI sat in a moment in TIME to
Figure the hours I watched
The traffic from my window to
Determine the ways of the world
I will next watch the
